Alternative routes advised during RTA road upgrades
From June 20, 12am to June 22, 12am, Jebel Ali – Lehbab Road (E77) will be closed at the bridge intersecting with Dubai – Al Ain Road (E66) in both directions for bridge maintenance.
Drivers are advised to use the free right turns onto Dubai – Al Ain Road from both directions.
The exit from Dubai – Al Ain Road to Jebel Ali – Lehbab Road via the loops will also be closed; please take the next exit on E66 as an alternative route.
The RTA has urged all motorists to plan their journeys in advance, expect additional travel time, and use alternative routes to minimise delays.
The RTA has announced traffic diversions on a key stretch of Emirates Road toward Sharjah, effective from June 9 to August 30, 2025.
The affected section is between the Dubai–Al Ain interchange and the Ras Al Khor–Al Awir interchange— a heavily used route for daily commuters between Dubai and Sharjah.
To ensure smooth traffic flow and safety during maintenance, the RTA will install signage and traffic management systems guiding drivers through detours.
Drivers are urged to follow the RTA’s official social media channels and use navigation apps for real-time updates on closures, diversions, and traffic conditions. Planning travel ahead is recommended to avoid congestion and reduce delays.
